Viruses are the most serious, widespread and well known kind of intrusion. Firewalls are a general security solution that limits the probability of attacks, whereas anti viruses are a specific security solution whose objective is to protect computers from the virus. Antivirus has three functions: detection, isolation and destruction. An antivirus is made up of four parts: a scanner, a monitor, a viral base and a log. Intrusion detection system is a monitoring system based on varied and complementary techniques. Intrusion prevention system is a mechanism that protects systems from intrusions. Modern security solutions allow many security tools to be grouped within one application, for example, antivirus, antispam, antispyware, antimalware, etc. as well as firewall functions, namely filtering and tracing.
